[R] Problem importing an S+ file

[Peter Flom]

Hello

I am a newbie to R, so excuse me if this is basic.

I am using R 1.7.1 on a Windows machine (and also S+ 6)

I have an S+ data frame called da.hh, which is stored in 

C:\Program Files\Insightful\splus6\users\Flom\.data

I want to read this file into R.  After reading the R Data
Import/Export file, I loaded the foreign package with library(foreign)
and then tried

read.S(C:\\Program
Files\\Insightful\\splus6\\users\\Flom\\.data("_data", "da.hh"))

I also tried it with single \

In both cases, I got "syntax error"


Thanks in advance
